ok so I understand if I just use my plain Jane SBZ I will need to get some headphones 32 ohms or less. However I have a stereo receiver sitting in the room with me that I'm sure can amplify well beyond 32 ohms. Would it be advantageous for me to buy some 600ohm headphones? I'm a noob so I'm asking dumb questions. I know.

No with 600ohm headphones you will hear nothing you wouldn't hear with 32ohm headphones. Assuming both headphones have similar quality.
the sbz supports upto 600ohms...but some 600 ohm headphones dont seem to get powered enough by it. I have 250ohms they perfectly fine gaming the 600 ohm version prolly only difference I could notice would be music wise but never tried them so I don't know for sure.
assuming that I use them for is gaming, but I use my computer to watch movies and listen to tunes.
It depends on the audio source material. Most digitized (even lossless formats like flac might have a bad original source) audio material do not offer sound stage that is necessary to make a 600ohm headphone shine. There is also always a placebo effect involved.
Of course if you have a proper music set with good analog sources (preferably good quality LPs) and an audiophile ear, you surely will enjoy a good headphone.
Sennheiser Orpheus has for instance 2.4-micrometer thick, platinum-coated diaphragms and comes with an amp that drives up to 10k ohms
